<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">For users to access the Speed Test
database via the desktop application or to use the web application to
access reports, they must have a login. A login can be obtained in
one of two ways, both of which normally require administrative
action. The user can user the web interface to register, in which
case they are assigned the default role. By default, this is a web
only role, meaning that the user can only access reports. To give
them additional permissions, the administrator must edit the user's
role. The administrator can also create a user without having him or
her go through the registration process.</P>
